Oblique scattering by a pair of thick conducting half planes: TE case

Abstract

An exact series solution for the oblique scattering by a pair of thick conducting half planes is formulated for a TE plane wave using the mode matching technique. The scattered and transmitted fields are represented in terms of an infinite series of radial waveguide modes. By applying the appropriate boundary conditions, the coefficients of the scattered and transmitted field are obtained. The diffraction and transmission coefficient of double edges are subsequently derived from the scattered field.
